GREAT documentation and anything you still can't figure out, just google. I love building sites on this platform because clients can TRULY maintain their own website once launched.
What concerns me about this software, is the lack of ownership over all the work put into the website. Software companies these days are becoming political and illogical at times.
You don't need any technical or true design skills to create a solid website. The high quality templates, with predetermined styling, ensure that even a simple website looks clean and elegant.
Sometimes there is a lag time where the system takes a little while to respond and that can be annoying.
Love the simplicity of some of the designs on Squarespace. The ability to make a website myself without hiring a designer is worth a lot to me.
In my personal opinion, I think SS is lost with its minimalist phyloshopy and streamlined way of doing things.
Squarespace is a fantastic tool to utilize for non-designers looking for a well developed website for an affordable price. Once you understand the platform it’s very easy to update.
Sometimes it will delete things I don’t want it to accidentally I’m not sure what the problem is, there needs to be a general undo button.
Great price, again great help and good easy templates that make it look very professional.
So far i have not been able to determine any negative aspects of the application.
The software is designed for a beautiful flawless Website. I love everything about it.
There were times when loading took longer than expected, which can be frustrating when you're needing quick edits live.
Amazing project presentation with good structure, visual style, marketing and e-commerce features.
What I really miss or maybe I haven't figured that out yet, is the possibility to put different layouts or looks on different pages within one template.
The templates and designs are very well selected with a good eye on Design. The pricing is very fair in comparison to other possibilities.
Maximum size of picturefiles is 10 MB- no possibilty to size up pictures to full-size with a button or so ( maybe I doesn't find it still yet).
Liz K.: Hi, my name is Liz. I am a Senior Paralegal at a niche law firm, but I'm also involved in operations at our resident techie outside of our external IT department. Our company size is approximately 30 people, and I would give Squarespace a one or two. Okay. We use Squarespace to host our company's basically about website with the details of what we do. Not our client portals, but just our company's main webpage. We are in the process of migrating to Wix. I have extensive experience with coding languages as well as multiple hosting providers. Wix is one that I'm not familiar with. And in the brief time I've already started using Wix, I prefer it to Squarespace dramatically. And I'm still not even fully up to everything with it. The one feature I do like about Squarespace is how easy it is to set up an application as well as the menus and their sub-menus, and add external links that in a way that it looks appealing. I hate their way to set up webpages. I hate how finicky it is. I hate how little control you have. I hate that you can't set the pixels with it, do you want the columns, you have to drag and drop everything. At some points, I wish I could write it into code rather than use their built-in thing, but that's not an option. I do not like how, for example, on our employees page, I have to click the add picture, add text, add this, add spacers in certain order. It gets all messed up. You drag and drop a block the wrong way, the whole website gets screwy. And then there's no one to... Or it's just very un-user-friendly for a site that advertises itself to be user-friendly. And again, I am very experienced with web design and I find it very frustrating, so I couldn't imagine someone who's never built a website before trying to figure it out.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
